ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT Uric acid has been demonstrated within atherosclerotic plaque, where it may predispose to thrombus formation by increasing platelet adhesiveness and by altering the normal platelet reactivity.[1, 2] Increased platelet reactivity has been associated with ischemic events in patients with coronary atherosclerosis.[3] In particular, recurrent ischemic events and increased risk of stent thrombosis were reported in patients undergoing
RI PT
percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in the presence of high residual platelet reactivity (HPR) despite treatment with dual anti-platelet therapy (DAPT) with aspirin (ASA) and P2Y12 inhibitors (e.g. Clopidogrel).
The Novara Atherosclerosis Study (NAS) group has recently demonstrated that in
SC
patients on chronic DAPT after an Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) or an elective PCI, the serum uric acid levels (sUA) do not influence the response to platelet function at 30-90 days
post-discharge.[4] Yet, a large heterogeneity in platelet inhibition has been demonstrated just
M AN U
at the time of the PCI[5] and whether sUA levels might have an impact on the rate of HPR is still unknown.
We investigated the association between sUA and HPR in 185 patients with stable angina undergoing elective PCI at Cardiovascular Center, OLV Clinic, Aalst, Belgium. Blood samples were collected the day before PCI for sUA, and immediately after sheath insertion for

platelet reactivity by VerifyNow P2Y12 assay (Accumetrics, San Diego, California) that was expressed as P2Y12 reaction units (PRU). HPR was defined as PRU ≥240. Hyper-uricemia was defined as sUA > 5.9 mg/dL. Patients were uniformly loaded with 500 mg ASA and 600 mg clopidogrel at least 12 hours before PCI. Troponin T (TnT) was measured before and 24 hours
EP
after percutaneous revascularization to assess PCI related myocardial damage (PMI=defined as 10 times TnT elevation).

Mean age of the patients was 68 ± 10 years, 72% (134/188 patients) were males. Renal failure (GFR< 60 ml/min) was present in 26% (48/188) of the patients (mean GFR 71 ± 28.3 ml/min). The incidence of HPR was 39% (73/188 patients), while hyperuricemia was detected in 56% (103/188) of the patients. Patients with elevated sUA showed a higher incidence of renal failure than patients without elevated sUA (p=0,034). No significant differences were observed for gender, smoking habits, diabetes, and age. No correlation was found between sUA and PRU (r= 0.135; p= 0.084). PMI was detected in 6% (12/185) patients, with no significant difference between patients with and without elevated sUA (p=0,312). Our findings confirm and further extend the results from the NAS group demonstrating no association between sUA and HPR in patients undergoing PCI even in the peri-procedural phase. Moreover, we found that the association of HPR and elevated sUA does not predict PMI.
